The really eerie thing was that the night before he died I had just finished reading his book Next.


I almost feel somewhat responsible.

It would be a more fitting tribute if the OP could spell the name correctly :roll:

I'm a huge fan, and will miss his books greatly. Hollywood will also have to find a new source for kick-ass movie ideas. I have two signed Crichton 1st editions...guess they just went up in value.
